Chapter 506 What is this song called!
On May 4th, the band temporarily ended their radio promotion journey and hurried back to New York.
The temporary stage on Times Square has been built.
Today is the day for rehearsal.
Because of the special nature of Times Square, singers must not really rehearse in front of passers-by. Then the concert activities that will start tomorrow can be held today in advance.
So their rehearsal location was actually in a large theater rented by Warner.
Rehearsals are not a complicated matter for a band that never closes.
If you are a solo singer, you may have problems with unsteady singing and poor singing skills. Then you can perform live performances by using the method of half-opening or cushioning.
But as long as it is a band, there is no one who can’t sing live or dare not sing live!
This is not that the singing skills are so good, but the band plays live, and the ones that excel in the live are all the time. Live performances are really as easy as going home for them.
There are many bands with better live performances than the studio version!
Although the band is not that powerful when closed, it is still not stressful for them to perform normally.
Even if this is the first stage of North America, the first stage of new songs!
Just like the big heart, the band has been trained in China, and it can be regarded as a new account to go to North America with full-level experience.
.....
Just as the band was rehearsing on the stage, several staff members on the side of the stage were also chatting enthusiastically.
And the topic they chat about is the non-closing band on the stage.
"Hey, Jesse, that's the band that's open, the Chinese band that has dominated the cover of Spotify in the past two days."
Georges yelled in anger, and his companions looked at the stage.
In recent days, just open Spotify's APP, the cover will be able to pop up the poster of the band and the recommendations of "Sugar". Just click in and listen to "Sugar".
Of course, this is not the privilege Spotify has given the band a kindhearted and open, but the recommended position that Warner spent real money to buy!
It's not the first time Spotify has sold the cover to a foreign singer.
Previously, many Japanese, Korean and Southeast Asian singers liked to go to the United States to gilt, post an English song, and buy an advertising space from Spotify. After returning to China, they can claim that they are international singers.
However, this is the first time Warner has bought recommendation positions for Asian singers in the United States.
Before, Warner spent money on recommendation positions for his own North American, UK, and some Spanish singers, but never bought them for Chinese singers.
Therefore, Warner employees in North America are still very curious about the bands that are open.
Although Warner Asia's career is also very good, many singers in Japan and China signed Warner Records.
However, for these employees in the United States, the Asian business unit is almost equivalent to being punished for being exiled to the frontier...
They never pay attention to Asian music and Asian singers.
At first, when Warner employees learned that the company signed a Chinese band that was about to debut in North America, most of them looked at it with a joke. Some people also opened the market internally, betting on how long the band could last and when they would be driven back to China in shame.
The most bets are half a year, followed by three months.
Almost no one is optimistic that they will become popular in North America.
Unexpectedly, the song "Sugar" is really fucking popular on the Internet!
Georges himself likes this song quite a bit!
"Sugar has reached 26 on the billboard, and its popularity remains unabated. According to the company's forecasters, it is possible that this song can reach the top ten."
"There has never been a case in the United States that Chinese singers have been on the top ten in the billboard, and they have not even been in the top fifty!"
"This is simply crazy!"
Looking at the non-closing band that was singing "Sugar" on the stage, Georges asked his companion in a strange mood: "Jesse, do you think this Chinese band can gain a foothold in North America and become a well-known band?"
Jesse, who was standing next to him, shook his head. If it were placed a month ago, he would have said confidently that he would definitely not be popular.
But now, he doesn't know what will happen.
However, with years of work experience, Jesse still said unprotectively: "A song can become popular does not mean that they can continue to become popular. There are too many short-lived singers in the music industry, but not many of them can become famous."
"I admit that "Sugar" is very good, but who knows if this Chinese band can write songs that are as good as "Sugar" and can conquer music fans?"
"Maybe." Georges shrugged, not quarreling at Jesse's opinion.
At this moment, the non-closing band on the stage began the rehearsal of their second song.
Georges and Jesse, who were originally chatting casually, heard the second song of the band No Close, and their expressions changed immediately. They all turned their heads and looked at the band No Close.
Ye Weiyang on the stage changed the sweet princely feeling he had when rehearsing "Sugar" before, and completely changed his person!
The calm piano prelude, a few clean and crisp mono notes, then the snare drum beats, and then the bass guitar horn. The melody of the gradually improved makes people heartbreaking.
“When I was a young boy.”
(When I was a little boy)
“My father took me into the city.”
(My father took me to the city)
“To see a marching band.”
(Go to see a parade band)
“He said, “Son when you grow up.”
He said: Son, when you grow up)
“would you be the savior of the broken”
(You want to be the ones who are hurt)
“The beaten”
(Blacked down)
“and the damned?”
(Is the savior of the cursed man?)
The hoarse roar, the exciting performance, and the restlessness gradually progressed in the cautious drum sound, making Jesse unable to help but feel numb all over!
“OMG!”
"I'll take back what I just said."
"No one ever told me that they are so good at playing punk rock!"
"This song is the most gorgeous song I have ever heard!"
"The melody in the middle can be completely broken into three songs, gorgeous and luxurious!"
Jesse’s favorite music style is exactly punk!
The unknown new punk song Ye Weiyang was singing on the stage at this time, which shocked Jesse!
"Georges, believe me, they will definitely become a legendary band and an international superstar!" Jesse opened her mouth wide and looked at the endless band on the stage with her eyes tightly, and said excitedly.
Next to him, Georges, who has always had a lot of prejudice to the non-closing band from China, was also impressed by this song.
"You are right. Perhaps this band from China will become the greatest rock band of this era!"
